Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Wonderful Word

Oh, Wonderful Word

Oh, wonderful, wonderful
Word of the Lord.
True wisdom its pages unfold;
And though we may read them a 
thousand times o'er,
They never, no never grow old.
Each line hath a treasure,
each promise a pearl,
That all if they will may secure,
And we know that when time
and the world pass away,
God's Word shall forever endure.

Oh, wonderful, wonderful
Word of the Lord!
The lamp that our Father above
So kindly has lighted to teach us the way
That leads to the arms of His love.
Its warnings, its counsels,
are faithful and just;
Its judgements are perfect and pure;
And we know that when time
and world pass away,
God's Word shall forever endure.

Oh, wonderful, wonderful
Word of the Lord!
Our only salvation is there;
It carries conviction down deep
in the heart,
And shows us ourselves as we are.
It tells of a Savior,
and points to the cross,
Where pardon we now may secure;
For we know that when time 
and the world pass away,
God's Word shall forever endure.

Oh, wonderful, wonderful, 
Word of the Lord! 
The hope of our friends in the past;
Its truth, where so firmly they
anchored their trust,
Through ages eternal shall last.
Oh, wonderful, wonderful 
Word of the Lord!
Unchanging, abiding and sure;
For we know that when time 
and the world pass away,
God's Word shall forever endure.
 ~ Fanny Crosby

 
A blessed Sunday to you all my friends.
Jesus loves you, the Bible tells you so.

What a beautiful message! I especially appreciate this today because I couldn't go to church (due to this bad cold I picked up). I didn't want to spread my germs around all over church, but it is so great to still be able to read the bible and think of God and all He has done for me. Thanks for sharing this lovely hymn.
